Andhra: Resignation was long overdue

The Jagan's resignation was long overdue. It should have come much earlier. By parting ways, the Cong unit in the state gets the much-needed breather and the govt the sharpest mandate to govern which even the Assembly polls had not not delivered.
The Jagan's tirade against the Cong that it is trying to split the family of which he is the sole spokesman isn't entirely true. It is not an attempt to split Jagan and his followers. THey have been marking their presence on his yatras across the state. And this yatra has had the sole mandate of splitting the party down middle. The letter he writes to Cong chief on the humiliation he has suffered for the past 14 months doesn't clearly state the pain and suffering he has inflicted on the likes of Rosaiah and others when they were at the helm. The attempt by the party to have a change of guard and bring new faces to the cabinet is to stem the tide and set in motion the process of governance. It is an attempt to bring governance back on track, fractured by Jagan's so-called public yatras when there was no need for the same and the tirade the TV channel Sakshi had launched against the party high command.
In fact the process of revolt he had set in first through Sakshi paper followed by yatra and logically taking it to the TV channel that owes its allegiance to him and his shrinking band of supporters. At least for now, the State Government can focus on areas on which it got the new mandate at last freed from the captivity of Jagan and Jagan Ki Na Jagi Janata.
